Here's an apple tart that has a nut/date crust. I fixed it for Thanksgiving and it is really good.

Open Original Shared Link When I make it again (for this weekend) I'm going to double the amount of apples.

I've yet to find a bread or cake baked without egg that is worth the effort, so I try to concentrate on desserts that naturally don't have egg, and the apple tart is the best I've had so far.

There may be others who have had more success than me and will post their recipes - I'll be watching along with you.

What a great recipe, thanks, I will make it this weekend for sure

Hi Daisey,

I've been experimenting with some of this recently. I agree with artgirl on the bread, except for fruitbreads which seem to be okay, just substitute a variety of egg replacers. (For example: 4 eggs required - gelatin for one, tofu for second, banana for third, egg whites or egg replacer for 4th. Also add a tsp or so of flax meal to your dry ingredients.) You might need to add some sort of frosting though, my breads seem a little dry. And make spicy cookies, with cinnamon or nutmeg or ginger. Wheat and eggs impart a flavor that's missing when you don't use them. When you add spices it's less obvious.

Thanks for the great advice, frosting also seems like a great Idea. I'll keep everyone posted about my cooking experiments.

Cheers

Thanks for starting this ...

I don't have a recipe, but I have been eating Pamela's ginger cookies and they are gluten-free,SF,EF,DF. They are made with molasses and that took some getting used to, but now I like them ...

I also like Bob's gluten-free chocolate cake mix and it is gluten-free,SF,DF,EF. I make it with canola oil instead of margarine or butter, flax meal instead of eggs and nut milk. The cupcakes always rise.

Hi Daisey:

Besides gluten I have diagnosed allergies to dairy (casein), eggs, soy and cane sugar. For my celiac support group's holiday cooky exchange I made Christmas cookies from my 'adapted' recipe:

FRUIT AND NUT SLICE AND BAKE COOKIES

(Gluten, Dairy, Soy, Egg and Cane Sugar Free)

Stir 1-1/2 Tablespoon Flax meal into 1/3 cup very hot water. Leave 10 minutes.

hi daisy,

i made 12 batches of christmas treats, all gluten/casein/egg free. if you need more ideas, please let me know and i'll post them.

marciab Enthusiast

Lorka,

Could you please post those ? So far this is a really good thread for allergen free goodies. Thanks marcia

BTW, any ideas on what to use instead of corn starch ? And corn based fructose ?

RiceGuy Collaborator

I occasionally enjoy rice pudding or tapioca pudding. Both can easily be made without the ingredients you mentioned. I usually add a few fruits like berries and apples, which always seem to taste great in these desserts. It can't hurt to get creative and just experiment. Whenever I aim to try a new combination, I just imagine what the flavors will be like when combined - seems to work out every time so far :)

I have a cookbook called Cooking Free, it has 100's of recipies that are soy/corn/gluten/diary free! I'd recommend getting it (or see if your library has it).

Marcia,

I always use potato starch instead of cornstarch. :) That is, of course, if you can tolerate potatoes. Some days, they are about all I can tolerate :D

Burdee - I made the Chocolate Almond Slice and Bake Cookies from your recipe today - YUM YUM!!!

I couldn't find any almond flour at Whole Foods today, so I bought whole almonds and ran them through the blender - worked pretty good but left some larger pieces of almond which I just sifted out. This is probably cheaper than buying the almond flour anyway.

I am alergic to corn, so instead of sucrose I used cane sugar. I packaged the dough into four rolls and put all but one in the freezer - this is going to be very convenient to bake up a small batch of cookies in the future (there are only two of us so small amounts of calorie-laden goodies is best).

I use arrowroot or potato starch instead of cornstarch - think any of the starches would work for most recipes.

Lorka - yes, keep those recipes coming!

We just made a gingerbread house and gingerbread cookies and they were gluten-free, egg-free, dairy-free and soy-free and yummy! This recipe makes a lot, so you might want to cut it in half. It made a large house and 2 trays of cookies.

Gingerbread people (Adapted from Betty Crocker)

1 C packed brown sugar

1/3 C shortening, softened to creamy (I used Spectrum)

1-1/2 C dark molasses

2/3 C cold water

7 C gluten-free flour (make sure it has xanthan gum sifted in; at least 1/2 tsp. per cup)

2 tsp. baking soda

2 tsp. ground ginger

2 tsp. cinnamon

1 tsp. salt

1 tsp. cloves

Mix sugar, shortening, mosasses and water well with a hand mixer. Stir in remaining ingredients. Use a strong spoon and lots of elbow grease! Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

Heat oven to 350. Roll dough 1/4 inch thick on floured board. Cut with floured cutters. Place about 2 inches apart on lightly greased cookie sheet. Bake until no indentation remains when touched, 10-12 minutes. Let set for 3-5 minutes before removing from cookie sheet.

no recipes here im not a good baker... but i can follow mixing instructions. so i use Namaste mixes and Really great food company mixes both fit your needs and "bake" up great

Liz,

I love ginger snaps. I wonder if one could just roll the dough in logs, refrigerate, and then cut off slices like refrigerator cookies, without rolling out and using a cookie cutter. I think I'll give it a try. Thanks for the recipe.

I don't think they'd turn out quite like ginger snaps, but I'm sure that method would work - although the dough is still somewhat soft even after being refrigerated.

I love your avatar - did you paint it?

Just tried this recipe and it tastes great. I need practice with the crust but that just means I have a reason to make the recipe again.

Thanks so much for posting the link!!!

      @rei.b,  I understand how frustrating starting a new way of eating can be.  I tried all sorts of gluten-free processed foods and just kept feeling worse.  My health didn't improve until I started the low histamine AIP diet.  It makes a big difference.   Gluten fits into opioid receptors in our bodies.  So, removing gluten can cause withdrawal symptoms and reveals the underlying discomfort.  SIBO can cause digestive symptoms.  SIBO can prevent vitamins from being absorbed by the intestines.  Thiamine insufficiency causes Gastrointestinal Beriberi (bloating, abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea or constipation).  Thiamine is the B vitamin that runs out first because it can only be stored for two weeks.  We need more thiamine when we're sick or under emotional stress.  Gastric Beriberi is under recognised by doctors.  An Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test is more accurate than a blood test for thiamine deficiency, but the best way to see if you're low in thiamine is to take it and look for health improvement.  Don't take Thiamine Mononitrate because the body can't utilize it well.  Try Benfotiamine.  Thiamine is water soluble, nontoxic and safe even at high doses.  I thought it was crazy, too, but simple vitamins and minerals are important.  The eight B vitamins work together, so a B Complex, Benfotiamine,  magnesium and Vitamin D really helped get my body to start healing, along with the AIP diet.  Once you heal, you add foods back in, so the AIP diet is worth doing for a few months. I do hope you'll consider the AIP diet and Benfotiamine.

      Imemsm, Most of us have experienced discontinued, not currently available or products that suddenly become seasonal.   My biggest fear about relocating from Maryland to Florida 5 years ago, was being able to find gluten-free foods that fit my restricted diet.  I soon found out that the Win Dixie and Publix supper markets actually has 99% of their gluten-free foods tagged, next to the price.  The gluten-free tags opened up a  lot of foods that aren't actually marked gluten-free by the manufacture.  Now I only need to check for my other dietary restrictions.  Where my son lives in New Hartford, New York there's a Hannaford Supermarket that also has a gluten-free tag next to the price tag.  Hopefully you can locate a Supermarket within a reasonable travel distance that you can learn what foods to check out at a Supermarket close to you.  I have dermatitis herpetiformis too and I'm very sensitive to gluten and the three stores I named were very gluten-free friendly.  Good Luck

      Okay well the info about TTG-A actually makes a lot of sense and I wish the PA had explained that to me. But yes, I would assume I would have intestinal damage from eating a lot of gluten for 32 years while having all these symptoms. As far as avoiding gluten foods - I was definitely not doing that. Bread, pasta, quesadillas (with flour tortillas) and crackers are my 4 favorite foods and I ate at least one of those things multiple times a day e.g. breakfast with eggs and toast, a cheese quesadilla for lunch, and pasta for dinner, and crackers and cheese as a before bed snack. I'm not even kidding.  I'm not really big on sugar, so I don't really do sweets. I don't have any of those conditions.  I am not sure if I have the genes or not. When the geneticist did my genetic testing for EDS this year, I didn't think to ask for him to request the celiac genes so they didn't test for them, unfortunately.  I guess another expectation I had is  that if gluten was the issue, the gluten-free diet would make me feel better, and I'm 3 months in and that hasn't been the case. I am being very careful and reading every label because I didn't want to screw this up and have to do gluten-free for longer than necessary if I end up not having celiac. I'm literally checking everything, even tea and anything else prepacked like caramel dip. Honestly its making me anxious 😅

      So you're saying that you think you should have severe intestinal damage since you've had the symptoms so long?   DGP IgG antibodies are produced in response to a partial gluten molecule.  This is different than what tissue transglutaminase antibodies are  produced in response to.   TTg IgA antibodies are produced in the intestines in response to gluten.  The tTg IgA antibodies attack our own cells because a structural component in our cell membranes resembles a part of gluten.  There's a correlation between the level of intestinal damage with the level of tTg antibodies produced.  You are not producing a high number of tTg IgA antibodies, so your level of tissue damage in your intestines is not very bad.  Be thankful.   There may be reasons why you are not producing a high quantity of tTg IgA antibodies.  Consuming ten grams or more of gluten a day for two weeks to two months before blood tests are done is required to get sufficient antibody production and damage to the intestines.  Some undiagnosed people tend to subconsciously avoid lots of gluten.  Cookies and cakes do not contain as much gluten as artisan breads and thick chewy pizza crust.  Anemia, diabetes and thiamine deficiency can affect IgA antibody production as well.   Do you carry genes for Celiac?  They frequently go along with EDS.

      I was tested for celiac at the same time, so I wasn't taking naltrexone yet. I say that, because I don't. The endoscopy showed some mild inflammation but was inconclusive as to celiac disease. They took several biopsies and that's all that was shown. I was not given a Marsh score.
